What I'm looking for

I want a collaborative, impact-driven role applying predictive modeling and BI to improve decision-making, integrate models into workflows, and grow through cross-functional projects and measurable business outcomes.

I am a data consultant and analyst with experience transforming large datasets in GCP BigQuery, building predictive models, and delivering BI solutions that drive measurable business outcomes. At Deloitte and Telus I developed KPIs, automated reporting (saving 20+ hours weekly), built ML-monitoring dashboards that improved decision efficiency, and co-developed a proposal that supported a CAD 400,000 two-year engagement.

I combine statistical rigor—regression, classification, time-series, A/B testing—with practical engineering: ETL pipelines, automated alerts, and production-ready dashboards in Power BI, Tableau, and Domo. I look for opportunities to apply machine learning and analytics in cross-functional teams to integrate models into workflows and improve business decisions.
